Call Breeze Controller with Windows authentication

[janminarik]

I need call ASP.NET Web API Breeze controller which use Windows authentication from Angular 5 / Breeze app.

I tried some modification for ajaxAdapter

1. Option

	import { config } from 'breeze-client';

        let ajaxAdapter = <any>config.getAdapterInstance('ajax');
        
        ajaxAdapter.defaultSettings = {
            headers: {
                'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
            },
            withCredentials: true
        };

2. Option

	import { config } from 'breeze-client';

        let ajaxAdapter = <any>config.getAdapterInstance('ajax');

        ajaxAdapter.defaultSettings = {
            headers: {
                'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
            },
            xhrFields: {
                withCredentials: true
            }
        };

Not work.

Request header doesn’t contains Authorization: NTLM ...

When I call Web API controller (no Breeze) which also require Windows authentication with Angular HttpClient it works.

    const headers = new HttpHeaders({
        'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
    });

    this._httpClient.get(url, { headers, withCredentials: true }));

Request header contains Authorization: NTLM ...

Web Client:

"@angular/core": "^5.0.0",
"typescript": "~2.4.2"
"breeze-bridge-angular": "^4.0.2",
"breeze-client": "^1.6.3",

Any Idea?

Solution:

Use https://github.com/Breeze/breeze.bridge2.angular + angular HttpInterceptor

[marcelgood]

The new Angular HttpClient service allows for interceptors to mutate an outgoing request. This is where you would mutate the request to add things like authentication etc, but make sure you use the new bridge: https://github.com/Breeze/breeze.bridge2.angular

Here'a an article that might help.
